RH> She had to go to summer school (about 250 miles away) for part of it; as

RH> my cooking mistakes out before we got married.
That sounds hardcore in my book. I also helped out around the house, but to
a lesser extent. I still had many cooking mistakes to make after moving out.
It`s interesting how varied the experience is for different siblings in the
same family. Just out of curiosity, were you the eldest?
RH> Probably Army but working for OSS (precurser to CIA) or a similar agency.
RH> Sounds interesting; I wonder how much of it he could have made public in a
RH> book. It would be interesting reading.
Now that you mention it, i think he was in the Army. I am not sure what role
he was in there... He also told me stories about working in the ship yards
in Portland, OR, building ships for the war effort. It sounded like he came
from a poor family, but his parents were more loving than normal. He said
they always gave their children choices, explaining what the consequences
would be of each choice, and they always gave them a space of their own
where they could go if they did not want to be disturbed.
He was working while in his 80`s. At that time he told me his health
insurance cost $900 per month. He said that even if they paid him nothing
it would still be worth going to work in order to have health insurance at
his age.
He had been married a bunch of times, and was divorced a few times and
a widower a few times. When i knew him he lived quite alone, though i
helped him set up video conferencing with his daughter who lived in
another state.
The indoor kittie is sick. She has a fever, dilated pupils, and is
moving around very slowly. She hadn`t eaten for several days and finally
ate a little this morning. I hope that means she`s on the mend.
